This Christmas Darah got her first doll. It was carefully and lovingly selected by her Grammy. The doll is really beautiful and special. Would you like to see it? Of course! The doll is April, and she is by the German designer Kathe Kruse. Isn’t she super-cute???

Ok, now that I’ve gone on and on about this doll, it’s time to tell you about a very special accessory she just got for her doll: a coordinating doll blanket so that she can have her special doll go “night night.”The blanket came from Rhonda, the brains behind a shop I’ve featured before called Lil’ Bit Sassy.

Rhonda wrote a post on her blog asking for new ideas for her shop. The ideas she liked the best would get that item sent to them for free! Now, you know I love a good contest, so I put on my thinking cap and decided that one thing I’d love to have for little d is a blanket for her doll. Rhonda loved the idea, and as we talked more, decided that she wanted to make something that would coordinate with the particular doll I had in mind. She turned my good idea (doll blankets) into a great idea (customized doll blankets)!

And here you see Darah putting her new blanket to good use with April. It’s so interesting, because so far, this blanket is really reserved for April, in Darah’s mind. I think she notices that they look so great together! 🙂

Buy it!: Rhonda is really enjoying making these new doll blankets for her shop. She has several for sale now, and she’d also love to work with you create a custom doll blanket with just the right colors for your needs! All her blankets are reversible and ridiculously cute! They are priced at $15.00. While you are at Lil’ Bit Sassy, take a look around. I bet you’ll find something else you need!
